Feature Request: choose different separators for export

Hi Nick,

by default MacDive (which I love) uses comma as a tab separator for export function.
It would be great if one could choose between comma and semicolon as a separator.

Background:
I usually do some statistics with Excel on the macDive dives. Excel is using system settings to determine formats when importing csv files. In my case that means that I first need to change system settings to US / UK standards. My default german mac system setting uses comma as a decimal separator ... If one does not change system settings back and forward frequently, Excel does not interpret the data correctly and correcting wrongly imported data in Excel is a major nightmare.

thx
Joerg

I'd rather not make this a preference, as I wish the CSV format could just go away. I could potentially just make it a semicolon all the time.

Drop me an email, I will send you a beta to try.
